Scripture's Story: A Unifying Hope

by Jared August, Mark McGinniss, Kenneth Gardoski

At the heart of God's story is the hope that all things lost to man will one day be made new. The Bible presents a single narrative that begins in Genesis and ends in Revelation. Although the sixty-six books that make up the Bible are undoubtedly diverse, they all testify in unique ways to the working out of God's redemptive plan. Scripture's Story proposes that every book of the Bible testifies of the coming day when God's promised Offspring will destroy evil, restore creation, and dwell with his people forever. It is this unifying hope that forms the basis of the faith of all believers throughout the ages.

I wish this would have been published while I was still attending Bible college—this would have been such a wonderful resource for my Bible classes. The authors explain how Scripture is unified, though diverse in genre and style. What I appreciated was their use of Scripture itself, within its context, looking at the original meaning and authors intent. Many times people approach the Bible’s unity with a preconceived idea of what that is or a theological framework already decided—here, Scripture speaks for itself.
It’s also simple and concise. This is a book for the normal, average Christian. It would also be a helpful resource for those with a teaching ministry.
